  • Publication number: 20150238881
    Abstract: A method of hydrothermally treating stillage by heating stillage to 200 degrees F.-350 degrees F., altering the physicochemical properties of the stillage by making solids in the stillage less hydrophilic, enabling facile separation of the stillage into a high protein solids fraction, a stickwater fraction, and an oil fraction due to the altering step, and, creating unique product fractions including the high protein solids fraction, the stickwater fraction, and the oil fraction. Oil, stickwater, high protein solids fraction, high protein meal, metabolites, biomass, and media obtained from the methods above.

  • Publication number: 20150235292
    Abstract: A request that indicates a project to be completed may be received from a device operated by a user. A plurality of items that are being used together to complete the project may be determined. The plurality of items may each be listed as being available for sale. A single display page may be generated that includes the plurality of items that are used together to complete the project. Lastly, the generated single display page may be presented to the device operated by the user.

  • Patent number: 9029126
    Abstract: A method of hydrothermally treating stillage by heating stillage to 200 degrees F. to 350 degrees F., altering physicochemical properties of the stillage, enabling facile separation of the stillage, and creating unique product fractions. A method of performing ethanol fermentation by treating stillage to enable facile separation by heating the stillage to a temperature of 200 degrees F. to 350 degrees F., and separating the treated stillage to recover a high protein solids fraction, a stickwater fraction, and an oil fraction. A method of improving fermentation by heating stillage to a temperature of 200° F. to 350° F. resulting in hydrothermally treated stillage, using all or a portion of the hydrothermally treated stillage as a component of a media, and using the media for a process including fermentation and biomass production. Oil, stickwater, high protein solids fraction, high protein meal, metabolites, biomass, and media obtained from the methods above.

  • Patent number: 8722911
    Abstract: A method of processing stillage by hydrothermally fractionating stillage to create unique product fractions, by heating the stillage to a temperature of 250 degrees F. to 350 degrees F., and recovering a stickwater fraction from the stillage. Stickwater, oil, biomass, bio-products, extracts, metabolites, and treated water obtained from the method above. A method of performing ethanol fermentation by hydrothermally fractionating stillage to create unique product fractions by heating the stillage to a temperature of 250 degrees F. to 350 degrees F., separating the stillage into a ProFat fraction and a stickwater fraction, and recovering oil from the ProFat fraction.
